Interview
It was a very disappointing experience. A PM asked me to develop the case for a hypothetical flight service, broad scenario with no room for clarifications. He kept interjecting constantly as I was trying to develop the case, seemed anxious and rushed from the start, interview started at 5pm, I felt he was eager to get done and a bit rude. This was my impression only.
